The Lost City

Chapter 4- The Secret Assassin

A young man wearing blue jeans and a coat crept into the Wolf Pack hideout; grinning at the special assignment he had been given. The stranger had fled just before the battle after his master had given him his task. Now, were would he activate his plan? He crept toward the kitchen, easily jumping over the broken sofa that stood in his way. Silently he opened the kitchen door and crept inside, ignoring the wooden table and splintered chairs. At the end of the room his noiselessly pulled open a cupboard which contained water, a can of Dr. Pepper, and a bottle of root beer. He quickly grabbed the root beer and popped the cap off, careful not to bend it. The stranger took out what looked like a bottle of yellow-green nail polish, and poured a few drops in the drink, before slipping it back into his leather jacket. As he screwed the cap back on the root beer, he made sure nothing was out of place. The stranger closed the cupboard and left, as swiftly and silently as a shadow.
